A large bag of dolls was put into the trunk.
Ji Ziqian drove through the streets of L City, stopping only briefly at traffic lights, without slowing down or stopping at any other point on the road.
Ji Ziqian didn't exchange a single word with Bai Xiaoruo the entire way.
Ji Ziqian was very agitated, but he didn't know how to tell Bai Xiaoruo.
He didn't want to be angry with her. He was really happy that she was willing to spend his birthday with him. However, the girl he loved was unwilling to face his feelings, which made him feel very distressed.
Bai Xiaoruo sat in the passenger seat, looking out at the bustling traffic. After playing all day, she was exhausted from all the excitement. Her eyelids gradually felt tired, and she leaned against the car and fell asleep.
She didn't care how fast or slow Ji Ziqian was driving.
It wasn't until the restaurant that had made the reservation called that Ji Ziqian remembered that he was supposed to have dinner with Bai Xiaoruo.
Only then did I notice that the woman sitting next to me had fallen asleep sometime earlier.
Ji Ziqian didn't rush to wake her up. He gradually slowed down and drove towards the restaurant. Only when he reached the entrance did he gently shake Bai Xiaoruo awake.
"Xiao Ruo, we've arrived."
"Hmm~ Where am I?" Bai Xiaoruo opened her eyes and woke up abruptly. She rubbed her sleepy eyes, still a little dazed from just waking up, and felt completely disoriented.
"Are you still sleepy? Why don't you sleep a little longer? I'll cancel the appointment for now, and we can go get something to eat whenever you're hungry."
"No need, Brother Ziqian, I'm not sleepy anymore." Bai Xiaoru's fatigue was only temporary, and she quickly regained her energy.
Today is Ziqian's birthday, so I can't just sleep all the time.
Ji Ziqian got out of the car first, walked around to the other side of the car, opened the car door for Bai Xiaoruo, then took her hand and led her out of the car.
After handing the car keys to the waiter at the restaurant entrance and parking the car, Ji Ziqian held Bai Xiaoruo's hand tightly and they entered the restaurant together.
Tonight, this restaurant is open only for the two of them.
He booked the entire restaurant for her.
This is a Western-style restaurant with a starry sky theme. When the two rows of waiters behind the door opened the heavy glass doors, a luxurious and romantic space unfolded before Bai Xiaoruo's eyes. The lighting in the restaurant was not particularly strong, and the ceiling was dim and unclear, as if she were really in the dark. The crystal chandeliers with tiny diamonds on the ceiling were like twinkling stars in the sky, adding starlight to the dark night.
The murals on the walls are also mainly dark blue stars and moons, sometimes bright and sometimes dim, dreamlike and beautiful, so beautiful that you can't take your eyes off them.
This is the fourth surprise Ji Ziqian has given Bai Xiaoruo today. Each surprise is different, but they all cater to Bai Xiaoruo's favorite things.
If Bai Xiaoruo hadn't come here in person, she would never have known that L City had such a dreamlike restaurant.
Before entering, I thought it was just an ordinary restaurant, but after walking in, I realized the true charm of this restaurant.
"Brother Ziqian, isn't it too quiet here? Is it because we ate too late? Why is there no one here?" Bai Xiaoruo asked Ji Ziqian in a low voice, a little nervous.
Such a beautiful restaurant, would anyone want to patronize it?
Because she hadn't checked her phone and didn't know the time, Bai Xiaoruo thought that maybe she had slept too long and the restaurant was almost closed, which was why it was empty.
"Don't worry, it's still early. Tonight, this place is just for the two of us, there won't be any noise or disturbance. Come on, where would you like to sit?"
The waiters who were originally standing in two rows all tactfully moved away.
Ji Ziqian led Bai Xiaoruo forward, where they could sit at any of the European-style tables and chairs.
Bai Xiaoruo habitually sat in the seat against the wall, only feeling particularly safe when leaning against the wall.
A waiter brought over two menus, and Ji Ziqian let Bai Xiaoruo order first.
When she received the menu, it felt a bit heavy. Bai Xiaoruo happened to be using her right hand to receive it, and her wound suddenly started hurting again, making her entire arm numb. However, in order not to let Ji Ziqian notice anything amiss, she forced a smile, as if nothing had happened.
Bai Xiaoru flipped through the menu several times, agonizing over what to eat. Every dish had a unique name, but there were no pictures, so she had no idea what they looked like.
Most importantly, everything on this restaurant's menu is so expensive!
Just adding certain vegetables, sauces, and imported ingredients can easily cost four figures or more for a single main course. Even the cheapest salad costs several hundred. Is it filled with gold? It's outrageously expensive.
"Brother Ziqian, I don't know what to eat either, why don't you order something?"
Knowing Bai Xiaoruo as he did, Ji Ziqian knew she would say that.
There's no need for the hassle of ordering food anymore. In fact, he had already ordered the food, and it would be served in a few minutes.
He just wanted to see if Bai Xiaoruo had anything else she wanted to eat, and whether the food he ordered for her suited her taste.
Ji Ziqian handed the menu back to the waiter standing to the side, "Let's get the food ready."
"Yes." The waiter took the menu and left.
Bai Xiaoruo was completely confused. "Brother Ziqian, what kind of dishes do you mean by 'serving the food directly'? Do you just serve whatever you want? Will they deliberately serve some very expensive dishes? It would be such a waste if we couldn't finish them all."
